Restrictions pertaining to doing Internships while as a F-1 visa holder is unheard of.

There is no restriction on doing CPT (internship) but if you do internship for more than 12 months continuously then you are not eligible for OPT.

 You can do internships after your first year in college as long as you want as long as they are under 20 hrs a week.  If you do 40 hrs or more a week then as sajhamitra says keep it under 12 months.
